Emma is like every girl in the world. She has a few little secrets.

Secrets from her mother: 1. I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom to Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben Hur.

...From her boyfriend: 2. I'm a size twelve. Not a size eight, like Connor thinks. 3. I've always thought Connor looks a bit like Ken. As in Barbie and Ken.

...From her colleagues: 4. When Artemis really annoys me, I feed her plant orange juice. (Which is pretty much every day) 5. It was me who jammed the copier that time. In fact, all the times.

...Secrets she wouldn't share with anyone in the world: 6. My G string is hurting me. 7. I faked my Maths GCSE grade on my CV. 8. I have no idea what NATO stands for. Or even what it is...

...until she spills them all …

Review of 'Can you keep a secret?' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Well as a guy I notice that mostly only woman are commenting and reading this book, but that is okay because as a fan of the written word I read all genres, and I'm adamantly againt such stereotypes of what a man or woman is suppose toi act like. just an observation... though to be honest this book isnt very good, Emma is such a weak character, and I get it, what Sophie tried to do with her but ultimately it's not working out too well. On the other hand I'm not quite finished with it, though I am over halfway done. My final opinion is up in the air. We'll see though. I can say it's better than anything stephnie meyer has written. But that's not saying much.
